Sources and fate of organic matter in suspended and bottom sediments of the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, Western India
(Current Science Association, 2015)
Organic carbon (OC), total nitrogen (TN) and stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic compositions were measured in suspended particulate matter (SPM) and surface sediment along estuaries of Mandovi and Zuari rivers, two small ...
Impact of river discharge on the coastal water pH and pCO<sub>2</sub> levels during the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) years in the western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2015)
Monthly variations in inorganic carbon components during January 2010–December 2011 in the coastal Bay of Bengal (BoB) were studied in relation to the variations in Godavari River (GR) discharge using ship board measurements, ...
Effect of wind turbine on TLP flating platform response
(eSAT Publishing House, Bangalore, India, 2015)
Ever increasing population of India demands high production of electrical energy which puts immense pressure on our limited stock of non-renewable sources of energy and makes us dependent over imports from foreign countries. ...
Bacterial diversity associated with Cinachyra cavernosa and Haliclona pigmentifera, cohabiting sponges in the coral reef ecosystem of Gulf of Mannar, southeast coast of India
(PLOS One, 2015)
Sponges are abundant, diverse and functionally important organisms of coral reef ecosystems. Sponge-associated microorganisms have been receiving greater attention because of their significant contribution to sponge biomass, ...
Environmental isotopes to test hypotheses for fluid mud (mud bank) generation mechanisms along the southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2015)
Occurrence of fluid mud (mud banks) in the southwest coast of India is an enigma for the scientific community. Over the years, several multi-disciplinary studies were conducted and various hypotheses were postulated on the ...
Characteristics of shallow water waves off the central west coast of India before, during and after the onset of the Indian summer monsoon
(Elsevier, 2015)
We studied the wave characteristics before, during and after the onset of the Indian summer monsoon based on data measured using the buoy moored at 3 locations off the central west coast of India. The study reveals the ...
Salinity response to seasonal runoff in a complex estuarine system (Cochin estuary, west coast of India)
(Coastal Education and Research Foundation, 2015)
The hydrographic conditions in Cochin estuary are investigated using longitudinal measurements of salinity profiles during a 1-year period. The estuary transformed from salt wedge conditions during the wet season to a ...
Phytoplankton size structure in the southern Bay of Bengal modified by the Summer Monsoon Current and associated eddies: Implications on the vertical biogenic flux..
(Elsevier, 2015)
The present study combines field and satellite observations to investigate how hydrographical transformations influence phytoplankton size structure in the southern Bay of Bengal during the peak Southwest Monsoon/Summer ...
Sources, distribution and preservation of organic matter in a tropical estuary (Godavari, India)
(Springer, 2015)
Major sources and distribution of organic matter (OM) were examined in a tropical monsoonal estuary, the Godavari, using content and isotopic signatures in suspended particulate matter and surface sediments during no-discharge ...
Daily variations in pathogenic bacterial populations in a monsoon influenced tropical environment
(Elsevier, 2015)
Changing climatic conditions have influenced the monsoon pattern in recent years. Variations in bacterial population in one such tropical environment were observed everyday over two years and point out intra and inter ...
